2:26 from BL. Some dicey moments early on with some guys going hard on the brakes, but overall things went well.

Now I will have 3 weeks of "altitude training" before the 947...

Someone can have 2 x bar ones. I dont need the extra fat ...

ICE ID on your helmet strap. Medics will probably look around your face/head and remove your helmet first if you out cold.

nope, will just stick it in a clear sleeve and pin it on.

Quick and easy. Saved myself about 90mins.

yip thats ok, I just want a basic idea on the layout and I will create something quick in paint, or photoshop if it needs that much skill.

Can someone post a photo of their race number for 2017 ? Please. Thanks.

that's settled then. I am going to take a chance.

Well if people are trying to jump into an earlier start then you get Dq'd. So that's not a problem. I am seriously thinking about printing my own number for this, I am working in Midrand for the week and its a mission to get out to Emperors. I will just show them the sms with race number if I have any sh!t on the morning.

The dead tree's of Rietvlei Nature Reserve in thick mist on Monday morning.

same as last year I assume, 2 weeks before 947.

Spot on.

Thanks

just had a look at the weather now, all looks good with the wind. Some arm warmers may be needed...

sure anything to help a hubber out...

Hmmm, not strong enough yet for that. And more importantly need more "racing" experience before attempting this. Maybe in a year or so, and when my seeding allows for it to happen. I also haven't done any races since the 947 so this is going to be interesting.

hoping to wheelsuck my way to a sub 2:30 from BL :ph34r:

Correct. But the last few posts refers to Frostys Carnival City race.

I doubt the wind can be as bad as Cpt, and there's no chance of being blown of any mountains into the ocean... Then I don't think the organizers of an already great event can be as **** as the ones at Letape. Lastly there's no mountain passes to wash away. I think you are safe !

you better keep the wind away this year... not driving 600km only to get blasted for 100km :cursing:

Did you get cash back for shoe booster or the cash back for using your healthy gear card ? I received the 25% cash back for healthy gear already. Now just waiting on the shoe booster to work.

The Witches, not the best quality as I had to suck out some life from this one.

@Big Tom, Just try doing a trade in with Orms. Sometimes they give you decent value. Also less hassle this way, too many scammers onine these days who waste your time.
